Dalton, Georgia Area Code |
|
|
Dalton, GA Area Codes are 706 and 762 |
|
|
Dalton, GA is currently assigned two area codes 706 and 762. Dalton, GA utilizes an area code overlay in which area codes
706 and 762 serve the same geographic area. Ten digit dialing (area code + seven digit number) is necessary in Dalton because two different homes in the same geographic area can have the same seven digit
phone number but each would have a different area code. The area code overlay which is in use in Dalton, GA today was put into service on May 6, 2006 and covers northern Georgia with a smaller section
covering western central Georgia.
In addition to Dalton, GA area codes 706 and 762 serve the major communities of Athens, Augusta, Columbus, La Grange, Martinez and Rome. At this time although 762 is
assigned as an overlay of area code 706, it is not widely in use. Columbus GA is actively using the area code overlay. |
