Last week, police had gotten information in connection to the hijacking of a truck in Kuils River, which was conveying cigarettes.
This led them to a storage facility in Stikland where they recovered the stolen cigarettes.
Further investigation led the detectives to another storage unit in Bellville south, where they discovered more stolen goods.
The stolen goods included jewellery, cameras, toners, and printers.
However, two suspects have been arrested.
After another search at the home of one of the suspects, 14 stolen cellphones were discovered and seized.
