Get to the metro station ''Pajaritos.'' From there take a bus J12 to ''Ciudad de los Valles'' (you need a Bip! card to use buses, no cash or single tickets). The bus stop is 100m to the left from the metro station. The bus goes along the motorway 68 and there are three service stations on the way not far from each other, first Petrobras, then COPEC and finally Shell. You can get off at '''''Pasarela Pedro Jorquera''''' which is a first bus stop and it's located just after the motorway junction with Vespucio (Santiago Ring). Petrobras is located 600m from the bus stop but it's better to walk for another 1km and get to COPEC. Even though there's not that many trucks there's much more movement of the cars and getting a lift is very easy.
Another option is to hitch just at the beginning of the motorway near the Pajaritos metro station. Walk out of the intermodal onto the Ruta 68, but there isn't too much is space to pull overright at the exit (where the buses pull out).Most traffic leaving Santiago this way goes direct to Valparaiso, a reliable and easy hitch!
