The easiest way to charge your battery is to start your car. If you can't start you car, then hook up jumpers to a friends car and start his car.

If the battery is old, crack it open to verify is still has acid in it. If it doesn't, you can add a small amount of water to bring the level up. There are numerous products that charge batteries. They simply attach to the poles of the battery. You can also start your vehicle and leave it running idle.

Well to fully charge a car battery out of a car you need a automotive battery charger. This device will supply a steady current of 12v to charge the battery. Follow the manufacturers directions when doing so. Then depending on how dead it is it will be fully charged in a few hours.
