Geographic codes stopped meaning a physical line years ago, but they never stopped meaning something to the person dialling. A local code reads as a business that is nearby and reachable — which is why plenty of national companies hold one for every region they sell into.

Keep it when you move
Because there is no line underneath it, moving offices — or having none — does not cost you the number.
