Bins/boxes should have thicker walls and no infill. Real boxes don't use infill unless the material lacks compressive strength, as in corrugated cardboard boxes.
If there’s infill it means the walls are thinner than the part design called for.
I was writing up some additional questions as I didn't quite get your suggestion, but while writing the response I think I understand. You suggest that I increase wall thickness in the slicer settings to match the model thickness, and not only in the model?
I was hoping to use infill to get some support between the outer walls and avoid having to use too much plastic and not having a single, free-standing wall.
If I understood you correctly, do you have a suggestion to what a suitable wall thickness would be to avoid the issue I described?
Use enough wall loops such that no infill is used.
