More emphasis on box emptyWeight #607

Hi @mathielen "Usually" it is cheaper to send a single box than multiple boxes, so that is what is optimised for by default. Have you tried using https://boxpacker.io/en/stable/all-permutations.html ? It will be slower, but you can then sort the results by whatever criteria you need |

Hi Doug,
First, thank you for this really nice library! Love it.
I'm not sure if I got everything correctly but from as far as I can see it is not possible to stop the packer from putting everything in one box.
Now with a scenario where we can either use multiple cardboard boxes or just one big wood pallet (which is quite heavy) the packer would always choose the pallet. That could be a problem.
I did not find a solution in the library as it would always try to find a single box for everything.
Solution for me right now is to try different box sets. Like, first try with all the cardboard boxes and then if that doesnt make sense (whatever that means) try to also use pallets.
I thought maybe there is a better solution to this problem?
If not, it is what it is. Thank you!
