The only advice I can offer is the part of your journey in France from Rouen southwards. We have towed this run for many years and have resorted to a mix of toll/non-toll roads due to high toll costs. From Rouen southbound aim for Dreux, then Chartres, etc and save yourself some Euros. If speed is your aim then forget what I'm suggesting.

We've towed both ways mentioned from Rotterdam.
If time is not a factor I would choose going down through Belgium to Luxembourg then Chalons and down that way for a change. Good route lots to stop and see on the way.
If time is limited then possibly straight down the way you normally go.
The roads out of europort are good and well signed, never had a problem heading south from there.

Is OP using P&O or Stena and are they travelling overnight to Rotterdam?
P&O will be o'night from Hull and arrives at Europort with easy access southwards but Stena arrives further north at Rotterdam and whilst the exit roads have been improved if arriving on day ferry from Harwich would deposit OP in rush hour traffic.
If it was me I'd take the P&O ferry.
