Are phone numbers with area code 562 toll-free?At first glance, it would seem that the answer is no, since 562 is not one of the toll-free area codes. However, there are a few exceptions.

If you're calling from a landline, calls to numbers with the 562 area code are toll-free if you're calling within the same area code. That means if you're in Los Angeles, you can call a number in the 562 area code for free. However, if you're calling from outside of the 562 area code, the call will be charged as a regular long-distance call.

If you're calling from a cell phone, there are a few more exceptions. Calls to numbers with the 562 area code are toll-free if you're calling from within California, but they're not toll-free if you're calling from outside of California. This can be a bit confusing, since the 562 area code is technically in California, but if you're calling from, say, Arizona, the call will be charged as a regular long-distance call.
