we were heading to Dover. it took a while to get a lift, but we were 3 people. our friends arrived to hitch after us and took a lift before us (cheeky). eventually found a lift to Maidstone after trying several spots (food court, fuel station, roundabout). Lots of French/German/Belgian/etc cars around.―Alifeee

West Thurrock service area. Good to get lifts to Europe! Have done it several times in 2006. £5 from central London to get there. Any questions: freddy_e@gmx.de―Anonymous

I was heading to North trying to get to the M6, Didn't go so well, The cars at the mall seemed to be all locals, and truckers couldn't take me due to insurance bla bla. At around 20:00 a Services dude chatted with me, Told me to ask the truckers only and wait at the exit of the Truck Petrol station in between. He then helped me out to find a Lorry heading north, In about 45min "we" found a ride to Bermingham―Erth Walker

Most of the traffic here was lorries that weren't allowed to take hitchers (maybe insurance policies have changed since 2006?). Took two hours to get a ride to Maidstone.―Ednaxe

I managed to hitch a ride towards London from the Shell garage one weekday morning. I had to wait about 20 minutes which was less time than I expected. It might have been a fluke, but I would certainly give this place a go.―Anonymous

Thurrock services: Me and a friend spent around 4 hours over two days before we got a lift. Although, we did have people pulling up but unforunately they were going in a different direction to where we wanted to go (south eastwards) (April 2015).―Anonymous

Me and a friend thumbed outside of Wickes and after about 15 mins, a taxi driver on his way to London picked us up. We also had a guy in town who gave us a lift after we asked him for directions (April 2015).―Anonymous

We waited about 40 minutes and got a ride into Dover to the McDonalds. Cafe across the road for dumpster diving cardboard. Fair amount of traffic to dover―Anonymous
