The driver and one other person were arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply a Class A drug.
A spokesperson for Hampshire police said: "The subsequent house search uncovered more cannabis, a significant quantity of suspected Class A white powder, scales, deal bags and other drug supply paraphernalia.
"Another solid result for the team, and a reminder that we’re always watching, even when you least expect it."
