Police told The Warragul Citizen thieves broke through a partially-repaired hole in the fence at the back of the depot which connects to St Andrew’s Kindergarten and a church car park.
Police have no suspects but believe a number of people and a vehicle would have been required to carry out the burglary.
Thieves broke through a similar wire fence at the neighbouring SP AusNet depot last month.
Stolen goods include three brush cutters worth $700 each, a chainsaw worth $700, a grass trimmer worth $650, a leaf blower worth $600, a lawn edger and a lock.
