Is there a valve on the street they pull or is it something like a button they press at their headquarters? (in the US)

Between your house and the main line, there is a valve that can be turned on/off. It requires a special tool. It is a simple water key, however your valve can be up to 6 feet below the sidewalk. In the USA, in most States, a home cannot be sold with an existing water bill.
