How do I turn off my water main valve outside

In my town it is illegal for the homeowner to access the main valve outside as I am sure most ordinances stress. You can usually contact yoir provider amd they will assist you

It depends. They have a "key" at home depot or lowers. It's a long pole that turns the valve depending how far in ther ground it is. But if you have a Mueller valve you have to Call the water company to come out. It real depends. There are multiple ways to turn each houses water off. Depends on Howe the house was built. A contractor would be best.
