The best thing is that vehicles don't pay any extra for up to five passengers. There's about 4 ferries daily (seemingly more in summer) to Fredrikshavn and 1 to Kiel. Ask in the Stena Line office or check out the webpage http://www.stenaline.se/ or in English http://www.stenaline.co.uk/ferry/
For your sign, write GRATIS under the DK. Most drivers won't know it's free to take another passenger.
'''Note''': One hitcher reports having However even being in a car on the way to Fredrikhavn you may have to pay EUR a something like 6 despite being euros for the ferry. Or possibly more if you enter as a foot passenger For starting hitchhiking late and going to either places like [[Århus]] or [[Germany]] it can be quite amazing to catch one of the late ferries and end up in Germany even though leaving in a carthe afternoon.

It is near the big stadium Nya Ullevi and if you prefer it there is a busstop on the road outside of Nya Ullevi where people can pull over easily, however that spot only tends to be good with a good very visible sign so that people notice you actually hitchhiking.
=== Ferries : South West towards [[Denmark]], and also [[Germany]] ===
There are ferries going all the time to [[Denmark]] ([[Fredrikshavn]]) and [[Germany]] ([[Kiel]]) from the Stena Line terminal. Take tram 9, 3 or 11 to ''Masthuggstorget'' or just start from "Järntorget". From there walk towards the water and find the place where trucks and cars drive onto the ferries. Check-in starts 1.5 h before ferry departure, so be on time! (but drivers can still go in about 20 minutes before..). Have a sign with the country of destination on it.
On the ferry to Fredrikshavn, you have 2 3 hrs to find a ride (, try to visit the truckers special area) if you dont find any cars heading south, at least to the excellent trucker terminal heaven hitching spot of Padburg, on the Danish/German border.
