Hiratsuka Station was opened on July 11, 1887, for both freight and passenger service on what was later designated the Tokaido Main Line ofJapanese National Railways (JNR). A number of short freightspur lines radiated out from Hiratsuka Station to serve the various industries which were developed in the vicinity of the station. Most of these spur lines were no longer in operation by 1924. The original station building was destroyed bysoil liquefaction during the1923 Great Kantō earthquake, which also brought down the bridge over the nearbySagami River. The station building was completely rebuilt in June 1973. With the dissolution and privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control of the East Japan Railway Company.
