X — formerly Twitter — will auction off items from its San Francisco HQ due to its brand overhaul. Just because these items are being auctioned off doesn't mean you'll be able to fill your living room with furniture from Twitter HQ. HGP will help buyers carry items into the loading area, but it does not provide shipping services. In January, the company sold items from its HQ including a pizza oven, office furniture, and an espresso machine. The Twitter bird and signature sky blue theme are slowly being removed in favor of the black and white X branding.

Items up for auction range from a standard desk chair to a large bird cage welded with a Twitter logo bird and everything in between. On top of the more outlandish items, Twitter is looking to get rid of office equipment including desks, chairs and refrigerators. The auction, run by Heritage Global Partners (HGP), opens September 12 and runs for two days in San Francisco. Twitter also put memorabilia up for auction in January, trying to offload similar items. X and HGP did not immediately respond to CNN’s request for comment on the auction.

New York CNN —If you’ve ever wanted to own a piece of Twitter’s HQ, the company is auctioning off dozens of items of memorabilia and supplies from its office in San Francisco. Twitter is cleaning house and looking to offload things like getting a large Twitter bird statue and a giant “@” sculpture planter. There are also multiple espresso machines and an electric bike charging station. Twitter/BidSpotterThe online auction opens January 17th and closes the next day, said Heritage Global Partners, the company facilitating the sale. “Just like a real estate broker doesn’t determine which houses or buildings their client would need to sell.”
Twitter will be getting rid of hundreds of surplus office supplies in a January auction. The items being auctioned off include kitchen appliances, Twitter sculptures, and office chairs. The company is cleaning out perhaps some of its most — and least — interesting items in an auction next year. The auction comes at a time when Twitter CEO Elon Musk is reducing expenses after purchasing the social media platform for $44 billion. The auction items also include tons of industrial kitchen equipment, including refrigerators and pizza ovens, dozens of display screens, iMac monitors, and gray swivel office chairs.
