Yotsukaido Station opened on 9 December 1894 as Yotsu-kaido on the private Sobu Railway, handling both passengers and freight. The Sobu Railway was nationalised on 1 September 1907, and the present-day spelling Yotsukaido was adopted later that year. Scheduled freight service ended on 1 February 1974, and a new elevated station building was completed on 11 December 1981 to coincide with Yotsukaido's elevation to city status. The station became part of JR East at the 1987 privatisation. A small station-building shopping complex opened in stages from December 2002 to February 2003. The Midori-no-Madoguchi staffed ticket window closed on 31 January 2023.

Among Sobu Main Line and Narita Line stations east of Chiba, Yotsukaido is the busiest by boarding ridership.
