Dialling from and to Coquitlam
Because Coquitlam sits inside a single-NPA region, callers may still be able to use 7-digit local dialling, though 10-digit dialling is universally accepted. From outside Canada and the United States, dial your international access prefix, then +1, then the 10-digit number.
Mobile carriers in Coquitlam typically issue numbers from whichever overlay code is currently being released by the NANP relief plan. As a result, two members of the same household frequently carry numbers from two different area codes — for example a long-time resident with an original-assignment number and a newer subscriber with an overlay number.

About Coquitlam, British Columbia
Coquitlam is located in British Columbia, Canada. Coquitlam is a city in Metro Vancouver, sitting at the confluence of the Fraser and Pitt rivers. The city falls within the Pacific Time (PST/PDT, UTC-8/-7) time zone.
Numbers issued to subscribers in Coquitlam can come from any of the area codes assigned to the surrounding numbering plan area: 604. With number portability now standard across all Canadian carriers, the area code attached to a Coquitlam number tells you only where that number was first issued — not who currently carries it or where the device is physically located.
If you are trying to identify a recent call from 604, the caller is most likely either based in Coquitlam or another community within the same NPA, has previously held a number issued in this area, or — in the case of telemarketing and scam calls — is spoofing a local prefix to increase the chance you pick up.
