description The main families of LHC superconducting cryomagnets consist of 1232 cryodipoles and 488 quadrupoles. The different contracts, which are constraining the production and installation of these cryomagnets, have been initially rated according to the baseline schedule, based on a "just in time" scheme. However the complexity of the construction and the time needed to fully test the cryomagnets require that each contract is decoupled as much as possible from the others' evolutions and impose temporary storage between different assembly and test activities. In this paper the organisation of cryomagnet flow and the main challenges of logistics are analysed on the basis of the planning of each main step before installation in the LHC. Finally, the solutions implemented for storage, handling and transport are presented and discussed.
