Default Bin Packing Problem (1DBPP)

Does anyone have an Excel template that performs optimization to solve the
"Bin Packing Problem". In the simplest example assume I produce orange juice
and each day of the week I will have a different total volume. Once I know
the volume i have I want to prepare 3 different size containers for shipping
the juice, making the most efficient use of the containers with the least air
space left over. I need to know how many of each size container to prepare in
advance. Looking for something a bit more optimal than best-fit or
decreasing-fit algorithms.
