Depends on the trailer weight rating. If it's a type with a ball hitch and intended to be towed by a light vehicle, you'd be best advised to use at least a 3/4 ton pickup. If it's something like a 20 ton tagalong trailer with air brakes, then you'd need a Class 7 or Class 8 vehicle to tow it.
If the Gross Combination Weight Rating (combined Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of the truck and of the trailer) exceeds 26,000 lbs., and the vehicle is of a type which does not fall under one of the CDL exemptions (registered farm vehicle, military vehicle, emergency vehicle, or recreational vehicle), then yes, you need a CDL.

Brake controllers can be fitted to any type of trailer to be towed by another vehicle. When the driver presses the brake, a signal is sent to the brakes on the trailer ensuring the correct amount of pressure is applied for the trailer to stop at the same time as the towing vehicle thereby avoiding a collision.
