Whakatane police are looking for the owner of a trailer recovered as part of a large haul of valuable tools and machinery last week.
Police carried out a search warrant at a Whakatane address and found thousands of dollars' worth of tools and equipment stolen from Whakatane and Waikato burglaries.
Senior Constable Helen Hay said police had found owners for a large amount of the property but still had a way to go to.
