A 15-year-old boy from Stafford, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is charged with one count of receiving stolen goods.
Staffordshire Police made the arrests after recovering stolen goods including bikes and bike parts.
A further two people were arrested but released due to insufficient evidence.
Those charged will appear at Cannock Magistrates Court on Wednesday, June 29.
