The facility began life on 1 July 1928 as Hinaga Signal Station on the Ministry of Railways’ Kansai Main Line. Freight handling at adjacent industrial sidings began in 1934. On 1 October 1963 the signal station was upgraded to a full station for passenger service and renamed Minami-Yokkaichi. The Ise Line opened through here in 1973 and the station was absorbed into JR Central upon the 1987 privatisation of Japanese National Railways, with JR Freight retaining the goods yard. Containerised freight stopped in 1975, briefly resumed in 1993, and regular freight working ended in 2011. The station has been unstaffed since April 2011 and was given numbering CJ12 in March 2018.

A "0 km" milepost remains beside the ticket gate, marking Minami-Yokkaichi’s former role as the starting point of the Ise Line before that role moved to Kawarada in 1987.
