You can try setting the outer div margin: 0 auto

It will work for responsive too.

Make the content you want to center (.container) inline-block. This way you can center it with text-align: center on the parent div.

.container {
  display: inline-block;
  background-color: red;
}

.content_wrapper {
  background-color: blue;  
  text-align: center;
}
<div class="main_section">
  <div class="content_wrapper">
    <div class="container">My content</div>
  </div>
</div>
