When done correctly, crate training benefits both your dog and you.  It will create a much happier household for all family members when you dog learns and understands his boundaries.

Housebreaking Will Be Much Easier

No dog enjoys resting in his own mess, therefore dogs will tend to gain better bladder control when confined to dog cages.  This will make housebreaking easier when you then associate going outside with the act of relieving himself.

Generally, dogs are den animals that like their place to be quiet and clean.  It is good to keep in mind that puppies need to go frequently, so limit their time in the crate.

Dog Crates Will Limit Destructive Behaviors

Dogs naturally enjoy chewing.  Your dog needs to learn the things that are acceptable or not acceptable things to chew on. Since your dog is generally going to chew on something, would it not be better to chew on acceptable toys rather than your chair legs and shoes?  Therefore, by providing safe chew toys in his crate, you will protect your house from damage and also teach your dog acceptable things to chew on in the house.

A Crate Will Protect Your Dog From Household Dangers

Typically, a house contains many potentially dangerous objects for your dog.  You can be asking for trouble when you let your dog roam the house unsupervised.  Your dog may be tempted to chew on lethal objects like electrical wires or poisonous foods or plants.

Proper crate training of your dog provides more confidence that your dog will limit getting in trouble even when you are not around to supervise.

Traveling in a Car Is Safer

Your car trips will be safer and more peaceful if your dog is resting contently in his crate. A crate trained dog will eliminate any possible distractions as you drive.

Crates provides a safe place for your dog when he is tired, not feeling well or just wants to be alone.
