PUYALLUP prefixes in area code 253
NANPA records 27 assigned NXX blocks to rate center PUYALLUP in area code 253, 5.3% of the 508 blocks assigned in the code. A rate center is the billing geography a block is allocated to – NANPA truncates the name to ten characters, so read it as a NANPA label rather than a town. 9 holders hold those blocks, the largest being QWEST CORPORATION (10), ONVOY, LLC - WA (4), ELECTRIC LIGHTWAVE LLC DBA ALLSTREAM (3). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-04-23 and the most recent 2024-10-11. 18 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
