740 Area Code Details

740 Area Code: A Piece of Southeast Ohio History

The 740 area code was created as a split from the original 740 that once covered all of Southeast Ohio. Today, 740 is exclusively tied to Southeast Ohio, covering iconic cities like:

Lancaster – the bustling heart of the region

Zanesville – the vibrant, diverse community

Chillicothe – home to rich culture and history

For generations, 740 has represented Ohio pride, offering the best of small-town life with fast access to all towns.

The 740 area code operates in the Eastern Time Zone (ET)–the same time zone as Southeast Ohio. This is important for businesses and professionals who need to stay in sync with local clients, suppliers, and partners. Whether you’re scheduling calls, running local ads, or managing customer support, having a 740 number means you’re aligned with Eastern Standard Time (EST) in winter and Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) in summer.

Areas Served by the 740 Code

The 740 area code covers all of Southeast Ohio, including:

Lancaster

Zanesville

Chillicothe

and many more.
