How can I center the menu/navigation in header?
PHP file looks like this
<div class="menu-and-contact-wrap">
<?php
$header_phone = get_option('theme_header_phone');
if( !empty($header_phone) ){
echo '<h2 class="contact-number"><i class="fa fa-phone"></i>'.$header_phone.' <span class="outer-strip"></span></h2>';
}
?>
<!-- Start Main Menu-->
<nav class="main-menu">
<?php
wp_nav_menu( array(
'theme_location' => 'main-menu',
'menu_class' => 'clearfix'
));
?>
</nav>
<!-- End Main Menu -->
</div>
And CSS file looks like this
.menu-and-contact-wrap {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
.main-menu {
margin-top: 42px;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
.main-menu ul {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
}
.main-menu ul li {
float: left;
position: relative;
}
.main-menu ul li.current-menu-ancestor > a, .main-menu ul li.current-menu-parent > a, .main-menu ul li.current-menu-item > a, .main-menu ul li.current_page_item > a, .main-menu ul li:hover > a {
color: white;
background-color: #ec894d;
}
.main-menu ul li a {
font-family:"Lato", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
color: #afb4b5;
font-size: 14px;
display: block;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 14px 10px;
}
.main-menu ul li ul {
display: none;
background-color: #ec894d;
width: 220px;
padding: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 48px;
left: 0;
z-index: 888;
}
.main-menu ul li ul li {
float: none;
margin: 0;
}
.main-menu ul li ul li:hover > a {
background-color: #dc7d44;
}
.main-menu ul li ul li a {
font-size: 13px;
padding: 10px 10px 12px;
color: white;
}
.main-menu ul li ul li ul {
background-color: #dc7d44;
top: 0px;
left: 220px;
}
.main-menu ul li ul li ul li:hover > a {
background-color: #d0743d;
}
.main-menu .responsive-nav {
display: none;
margin: 0px auto;
width: 100%;
padding: 5px;
}
I tried to change them as you can see above in CSS, but without any success
In default they looked like this:
Menu-and-contact-wrap looked like this
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
And Main-menu looked like this before
margin-top: 42px;
float: right;
Thank you!

There are a few ways. Here are two.
Set a non-100% width on .main-menu and then add margin: 0 auto
Remove the floats from .main-menu ul li, add display: inline-block to it and add text-align: center to .main-menu
