It is located along the tracks of the old Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad, later to become the Pennsylvania Railroad mainline between Washington and New York. The early post offices were located near the railroad. In 1926 the Government took over everything on the peninsula south of Edgewood and established Fort Hoyle, later to become Edgewood Arsenal. Little postal history material has been located from this town but circular postmarks are known. Edgewood never absorbed any discontinued post offices.
Delivery is provided over an area up to five miles from the present office.
