This site may help . Not sure if you'll take the Afsluitdyke route or swing thru Apeldoorn and up ... There are a couple shops in Drachten .

As a trucker you may find Drachten an interesting stop ...Its the town where they've been experimenting with zero traffic signs ...

cheers,that is one of the many reasons to be travilling and moving there,as safety is paramount,and if people can live without lights and just a bit of common courtesy then thats the place for me!
