Knutsford Services Northbound
How do you get stuck for 27 hours? Anyway, I got a ride in about 5 minutes going around, asking drivers in the dark. The guy asked me to show him my ID, but took me almost home in Manchester.―Uncle sam01, December 2016
Going to Scotland. Tried here at night, very little traffic, noone stopping.
Got a lift in the morning after a couple of hours on the road before the petrol station, but only because someone got stuck behind a truck and had time to think about it for a while.

I waited around 35 minutes for a car to take me west onto the M56. It was quite quiet.

3 bad experiences so far in 2013 going south ....no cars . expect to wait 90 minutes and then be offered a lift to Hilton Park Services , Wolverhampton , which is also a 90 minute wait. Avoid Kuntsford and Hilton Pk . The rest of M6 is ok

Once got stuck here with a friend for 27 hours, most other times it's been 2-5 hours, not good for going north.
Avoid at all costs!

Not always good for Manchester here - we tried once with sign 'MANCHESTER' for 2 hours without success. Walking to J19 and hitching from there got much better results.

I actually disagree - I got a lift to Perth, Scotland, within seconds (!)

Depends where you're trying to get to
Avoid if you're trying to get North of Manchester! - go back to Sandbach and then up.
Ok for getting lifts into Manchester, sometimes liverpool or toward Leeds.
