Operation Poulard was conducted by Dandenong CIU in conjunction with the tasking unit and targeted burglaries in the Dandenong area.
Police executed eight search warrants in Greater Dandenong and Casey on Monday night and Tuesday morning and also seized a large amount computer equipment, tools, vehicles and motorbikes.
Six people have been arrested and a 23-year-old Dandenong man has been charged with 35 counts of burglary, 29 thefts, four car thefts and three attempted burglaries.
