What hitchhikers said along this route
“This is a great spot in the inner city close to noerrebro where you at least will get a ride to a ramp to a highway heading your way. I have used it 5-10 times amongst which half has taken me further down the E20.”

“Poszczęściło nam się, akurat trafiliśmy na ludzi którzy mieszkali w tym mieście, więc przewieźli nas 150 km”

“gasstation. Last time leaving Copenhagen i wrote Koge on the cardboard, but asked to get off here. Saved me waiting time in Cph. Not always much traffic, depends on time of the day/year.”

“If you want to leave Copenhagen take the train to Koge and walk to this gasstation. I do so in November 2009 on my way to germany. You will find a lot of drivers but only a few are heading to the ferry. Get up early in the morning!”

“After checking the 2 parking lots and the gas station for 2 h we got a ride for 2 people going all the way to Hamburg through the night. (car picking up gas). Btw The Rødby ferry price is not dependent on the number of passengers, so it was free. 1 L beer at gas station costs 20 DKK.”

“got a ride from a nice finnish couple all the way to Luebeck from here. There are also showers at the service station, which probably, for me, helped a lot in getting a lift ;)”

“Waited for around three hours, asking everyone around if they were going to Rhodby/the ferry. At last we found someone that would pick us up, and let us sit in their baggage of their minivan. We we're three persons.”
