About the 551 Area Code

The 551 area code overlays 201 across northern New Jersey, covering Jersey City, Hoboken, and Bayonne. Pharmaceutical companies in the region fax confidential records between facilities to keep them off email systems that a breach could expose. Finance firms and law offices in Jersey City and Hoboken send signed agreements and filings by fax because the transmission leaves a record that holds up under scrutiny. Logistics operators along the waterfront fax bills of lading and customs paperwork that partners require on a verified channel. A 551 number from Send FAX Mail handles sending and receiving through email, starting at $12.99/mo with free number selection.
