Direction Svilengrad, easy enough to get a ride past Plovdiv (30 minutes or so), the same would apply for Burgas.

Easy place to get to Plovdiv, not so much to get to Burgas directly, so probably better to first get to a gas station on the road to Plovdiv (and on to Burgas) and from there talk to people to get further.

Good place to hitchhike towards Sofia and other tows to the West of Plovdiv. A lot of drivers prefer this exit when going to Sofia

Coming from Turkey I got dropped here and had no problems at all to get another lift to Plovdiv. Enough space for cars to stop on the on-ramp and the side of the highway.

the road from south splits here to plovdiv and to the motorway (west). enough places to stop for both directions.

When your heading is to Kardzhali. Locals are very friendly. This is the last stop of bus #4, which passes through the center. There is a bus station at the entrance of the town on the road Plovdiv-Asenovgrad.

From downtown Plovdiv you can get on bus 66 (make sure you take it eastwards) and get off at Tsarigradsko Shose, before the bus turns into the Trakia district: http://www.masov-gt.com/googleMaps.php?table=66_1D1M0p&Den=1&VidTrans=1&description=%D0%90%D0%B2%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%B1%D1%83%D1%81%D0%BD%D0%B0%20%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%8F%20%E2%84%96%2066%20(%D0%BA%D0%B2.%20%D0%9F%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%81%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B2%20-%20%D0%B6.%D0%BA.%20%D0%A2%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BA%D0%B8%D1%8F%20%D0%9012)
Then you can walk over the bridge and find a good spot to hitch (at the bistro).
