I'm not fond of storage units at all. I've taken way too many reports of break ins to them. Add to it the problem you are dealing with. I'd be finding a new place for my stuff pronto, no questions asked.
I worked as a narcotics detective for awhile when our meth problem was rampant. I was dealing with labs daily here until we got it under control. Being DEA certified to dismantle clandestine labs such as meth labs I've spent more than my share of time in rubber suits repirators and SCBA's. I've also had some accidental exposures to some nasty stuff and have been very lucky that none of those have caused any type of immediate problems. Who knows what I will end up with in the years to come.
As for meth, depending upon the method they are using to make the stuff, the byproducts can be a serious hazard to your health. Sounds like they were using the Nazi or Birch method which they use anhydrous ammonia for one of the catalysts. Anhydrous ammonia is some extremely nasty stuff with some serious health hazards. The Iodine or Red P or Red Phosphorus method is even more dangerous and can produce both phosphine and phosgene gas, both of which can kill you very quickly.
Many chemicals used are combustible and will explode if ignited. I've worked many an aftermath after labs have exploded. One guy literally had his testicles blown off in one of our local mishaps. Sad thing is his 5 year old son witnessed it and he did not survive due to third degree burns over most of his body. Luckily the kid was not seriously injured and survived but one can only imagine how messed up that kid will be for the rest of his life. I've also got a budy who has a wife that works for Dept of Child and Family Services, she was exposed to meth lab vapors and has suffered from very severe respiratory problems ever since.
Meth labs aren't anything to be taken lightly. If you ever come across it again, get out and get away and immediately make that call to 911 and report it.
As for them not having enough to charge the person involved, I don't buy that at all. I'm not sure where you are at but here in IL just what you have described would be more than enough to build a case on, especially if the suspect has any previous involvement with meth.

At one time S.W. Missouri was known as the "Meth Capital" of the country. While doing some extra weekend miles on my bicycle I used to see cooker trash in the ditches everywhere. On one section of 4 lane shoulder I rode on to get from one backroad to another, I could measure the distance in Insulin syringes per mile laying on the side of the road.
Really restricted the ephidrene (sp?) and it's not as bad as it was. Still here, just not everywhere like it was a few years ago.

I remember those days, lived in Taney County in 99, seemed like they had labs blowing up and burning down daily.
As for problems where I live. We were rampant here from about 2000-2005. Tougher laws on ephedrine and sudaphedrine as well as better laws to combat the meth problem along with numerous federal idictments and federal sentences and things have slowed way, way down. We hadn't had a lab bust in quite awhile until this past week.

Dude, +1 on all the advice given. Get ALL of your stuff outta there and be cautious wherever you move to.
As far as the danger, CTA described it best. Annhydrous is some horrible stuff. Sadly enough many of these meth addicts haven't had enough Chemistry & Physics to truly understand what they are fuggin with. I worked around chemical plants and all of the aforementioned products and by products are volatile. As if ammonia isn't posionous enough to you mucous membranes, most people also forget about the explosion hazard. Creating a vapor cloud ina house or storage shed where anything could serve as an ignition source could bring an ubrupt end to someones meth addiction and any innocent bystanders life.
I'm glad your exposure & your experience wasn't worse than it was.

In my area of the woods they call meth hillbilly heroin. Living in a middle class neighborhood I thought meth was not something to worry about. After smelling some strange odors from a neighbor who happened to have a large amount of traffic in and out at all hours plus many agressive dogs we then had a druggie shot during a bust. The drug house was 600 feet from my house and the shooting was at the entrance to our housing addition.
It's really none of my business what other people do to themselves but when it involves me they have crossed the line. Meth is quite often a crime of the middle class.

Is it a Choclate Lab
as said, move your stuff asafp nothing good comes from that guy being there but man if he's looked over the top of the locker to see whats in yours (which would scare me away from renting there in the first place) then you DEFINITELY want to get moving. Just think of how much crank he could make with the proceeds of your stuff 
Been over 11 years now "babe"
God is merciful. 
You back away from the addiction very slowly, with purpose, you keep your eyes on it at all times, or it jumps ya, and what you thought "was" now "is" again.....Words to the wise: If a Methamphetamine addict's lips are moving, there is no truth in it for miles. They're workin' ya.......one way, shape, or form.
Oh, and move your locker location Brother, if he's a real tweeker, he has already looked over the top a couple times with his eyes and a mirror with a flashlight, because "I could swear I hear someone in the next locker, did ya hear that ????".............
There's a photo floating around the net of a woman on Meth over a period of time. Why people subject themselves to such things.
