Dead Truck! and I gotta move

Okay I have a problem I left my truck sitting since around well before it snowed and I plugged it in today for 5 hours and all I got was a almost turning over and a clicking from the starter so I am thinking prob battery since I have no clue how old it is but it looks pretty old and secondly I am moving over the next week and it has to be moved can we safely jump start it as I have jump started tons of gas pots but never a diesel sooooo if you Alberta guys can give me a answer that would be great the truck thats dead is in my sig below
