Water service
First off you should ask your plumbing inspector how to run the water service and sewer lines as they may not meet code installed so close together. What info I tell you will be according to IPC and may differ if you live in an area that uses a different code.
The code requires you to keep the water line 12" above the highest point in the sewer line unless it is 5' or further away from the sewer. There are exceptions to this code, but many inspectors still may not allow it.
One of the exception allows you to run the water line and sewer together in the same ditch since you are installing Sch. 40 DWV PVC sewer line., but check with the inspector...
What kind of joints or fittings you use at either end would depend on what you are connecting too. If you are connecting to copper coming out of the house i would use a standard solder coupling and the same on the other end if there is copper there also. If you are connecting directly to a water meter or curb stop then it depends what kind of meter fitting it has... flare, compression, IPT.
Should check with the inspector if you have to add any addtional shut off valves in your water service or if it is required to braze underground joints on the water service. Where I live, our meters are at the curb and we have to install a seperate valve box with a ball valve next to the meter box.
A mapp gas torch is good for soldering 3/4" copper. I use 100% lead free silver bearing solder or 95/5 lead free with a paste flux. The brand of solders, brazing rods, and fluxes I use are not generally available to the public but I would say they are comparable to Oatey lead free silver solder and No. 5 paste flux or No. 95 tinning flux.

brazing is pretty much the same as soldering, just at a higher temperature with a joining material with a higher melting point.
I always sleeve underground copper tubing in some cheap black 100psi. polyethylene tubing, soil conditions can corrode the copper pretty fast in my area.
good luck
