Göteborg is a city in Sweden.

Hitching Out

North towards Oslo

If you're still in the city-center, you can try getting a lift from the gas station located adjacent to this roundabout, where cars are going in many directions, some of which might go to Oslo. However, most of the cars coming from the roundabout are going very very fast, and it's hard for them to stop on the street here. And, most cars at the gas station are just staying inside the city at this point. However, there is another service station, just a few kilometers out farther, (from where you enter the highway at this point), which is much much better for traffic & cars going toward Oslo. It's also larger has a lot more room for cars to stop and pull over from the street. So, one possibility is to try and ask drivers to drop you off at a this better service station. (It might be Q or K in this map, but I'm not exactly sure.

South towards Malmö

There are trucks leaving to Malmö every night at 20.00 from DHL just next to the gasstation by the Nils Eriksson terminal (where the busses go from the central station). Best is to look up DHL at internet and call them.

South towards Denmark, Germany

User Liva has not tried this by herself but she guess it is really easy: There are boats going all the time to Denmark and Germany from the Stena Line terminal. Take tram 9, 3 or 11 to Masthugstorget. From there you have to walk and find your way to where the trucks drives in. Have a sign with the destination on it. If you just want to get away from Sweden write (DK) or (D) on it, with the circles around. Ask in the Stena line office for when and where boats are going. She has never tried it herself but it works in Dover, Puttgarden, Rostock, Igoumenitsa and so on. The trucks don't pay any extra for you.

Stena Line Ferrys towards Kiel: For the Ferrys towarts Kiel, Germany the drivers don't need to pay extra for you, but you have to book a cabin, which are available from 225 SEK upwards. The Frerry is leaving every day at 7pm.
