Great spot for going north to Amsterdam, and okay spot to get west to Rotterdam.Unfortunately the staff of the gas station told me I can't ask drivers for a lift at the gas station itself, so I had to resort to using a sign on the exit of the parking lot. A bit annoying, as the gas station had lots of cars coming through.
I the end, I didn't wait too long and finally found somebody who drove me close to Rotterdam.

Theres some little space where cars can stop, definitely stamd with a big sign and somewhere really visible, dont try to be a "surprise" to the cars. Might be more difficult if theres peak traffic but it worked.All the way to Amsterdam :D

Asking around is the way since there are not so many cars passing by here. Managed to get a ride directly to Amsterdam after 10 minutes of asking ppl stopping at gas stationrating: 4/5, wait: 10 min 💬, ride: 339 km ←

I got a ride pretty quickly. Would agree that the spot might not be perfect — not that much traffic unless you go to the roundabout. Also, the people stopping at McDonalds seem to be going in other directions than Amsterdam. My luck came from the direction of the hotel, where someone was heading towards the city.Worst case there is a train station close to it, so you can easily get into the city if you are not lucky.

Great spot to hitchhike out of Amsterdam towards Utrecht. Walk up next to the highway ramp and then there is a wide shoulder. Had a big sign and waited only 3 minutes.rating: 5/5, wait: 3 min, ride: 29 km ↘

It was in the evening and despite a lot of cars, no one gave me a ride to Amsterdam. Lots of families and probably a lot of people tend to go in the other direction at night.Usually it is very easy for me to get rides in the Netherlands, so this place is really bad somehow.
Luckily there is a train station right next to it (it does have gates)

Good spot with lots of friendly drivers. Got a lift to Apeldoorn in 20 mins. Bit of a mission to get to the spot but worth it compared to hitching from the official spot back in Amsterdamrating: 4/5, wait: 20 min, ride: 78 km →

Fantastic spot! Except… nobody picked us up. Maybe someone else will have better luck?Bus stop right before a stoplight. Tons of cars coming from Keukenhof Gardens. Can talk to drivers stopped in long lines from traffic light. Everyone I talked to was going opposite direction from Amsterdam even though all traffic to Amsterdam must pass that spot. Only one person actually pulled over and stopped for us, but she was going a different route.
After over an hour we looked at bus options. An unmarked bus stopped and said he was going to Amsterdam and that the bus was free, so we were lucky, but other people on the bus said they’d had to pay for it.

Many people going to Brussels, Amsterdam, Calais. Don't try to go at the toll further up because nobody is going to take it for Lille (as it is easy to go around). People think they won't pass by Lille but insist as they WILL for sure. You'll be drop somewhere where you can get a city bus. Not many cars at the station and I had to insist to convince people they can help me. i thought it would be easier for Lillerating: 4/5, wait: 60 min, ride: 53 km ↑
