Get a number in the 480 area code
Two options can give you a 480 number. A provider gives you a new number through its plan. You select it when you sign up from numbers the provider holds under this code. A seller lists numbers it already has, often with a pattern, at a one-time price. You then transfer your chosen number to a provider.
